The hypothetical scenario simulated realistic flood and coastal erosion scenarios based on flooding earlier this year which saw the Manning River at Taree reach a new peak of 6.45 metres - the highest on record - and caused widespread flooding, isolation and property damage across the Mid North Coast.
